2016 Grammy® Winner for Best Improvised Jazz Solo on Cherokee. This record is the fruit of McBride's long association with the Vanguard, where his first appearance as a leader for the historic club was in 1995. In 2007, the bassist and charismatic club owner Lorraine Gordon started an annual one-week residency, which featured McBride's quintet, Inside Straight. InchLorraine enjoyed my trio and my quintet, Inside Straight. We had such large crowds, so after a few years with such supportive audiences, we added an extra week. Instead of doing the same band for two weeks, I just started bringing in a different band. This has been an ongoing relationship that I look forward to maintaining as long as I can.Inch
Produced by McBride, Kind Of Brown is a collection of hard swing-to-bluesy groove tunes that the leader says he put together to give the members of his new ensemble Inchsomething to sink their teeth into.Inch Album Tracks 1. Brother Mister 2. Theme for Kareem 3. Rainbow Wheel 4. Starbeam 5. Used 'Ta Could 6. The Shade of the Cedar Tree 7. Pursuit of Peace 8. Uncle James 9. Stick & Move 10. Where Are You?
Jawn [jän] noun. A slang terminology from Philadelphia. All-purpose term for a person, place or thingIf there's one thing the acclaimed bassist knows, it's that when it comes to grit there's no better resource to draw from than his own hometown, Philadelphia. So, McBride turned to one of the city's most beloved colloquialisms to christen his project, Christian McBride's New Jawn. On the band's eponymous debut, these four stellar musicians ably walk the razor's edge between thrilling virtuosity and gut-punch instinctiveness.
